Days 61–70 · ten original 25-minute sessions · author desk draft, not classroom piloted. Children explore visual texture by changing line length, direction and spacing, and label what came from a source versus what they invented as illustrators. Week 13 uses the integrated fictional cardboard-boat story without asking for anyone's family information. Week 14 offers safe, approved real plant viewing only when available, with a complete fictional art fallback. A change in marks is not proof a living thing changed.

Run a day

  1. Read the day's timed script and three-route learner card. Use the 20 worked context bridges for interests without presenting them as actual observations.
  2. Choose an original A4 aid or exact read-aloud route. Approved dry marks are optional; materials and evidence rules include true no-material participation. The offline mark lab is an optional visual/text aid.
  3. Use fresh learner Checks U/V on Days 65/70; keep the separate educator key out of sight until first responses. Record child mark choice, source/fiction status, actual maker/handler and neutral support.
  4. Use the real-artwork/audience source slot only with school-approved rights and actual events. The exact ACARA/QCAA crosswalk describes partial Visual Arts practice and clear HASS/Science limits.

Integrated Week 13 assesses careful source use and any private, child-chosen family evidence under HASS rules. This art pack needs none of a child's family details. Integrated Week 14 manages safe real observation and source dates under Science rules. A visually inventive drawing can be strong art even when no real plant is available; a fictional plant is never a real biology result.

Included

Human review remains: local Prep fit/reporting, child-specific access, safe materials/viewpoint, real artwork rights/cultural authority, privacy/consent and educator try-out. Build and author checks cannot establish learner growth, all-user accessibility, real plant change or audience understanding.
